25.01.2022 Bedwetting is sometimes referred to as "nocturnal enuresis". Bedwetting is very common and a problem for many school age children (age 5 to adolescents) and their families. The good news is that for many, the problem can be fixed through using a bell and pad alarm system. Sue Aitken, the bed wetting nurse specialist, runs a bed wetting program at CPMG. A referral is not needed. Please see link for more information... http://www.cpmgmelbourne.com.au/ms-susan-aitken
